'Castle' Recap: How Many 'Firefly' References Can You Fit in One Episode?

This week on Castle, the show remembers Nathan Fillion is a geek god and acts accordingly. The episode could have just been subtitled "Hey, did you hear Firefly turned ten? Anniversary episode anyone?"

This episode was the most delightfully geeky thing I've seen on television in a long time, and I often watch The Big Bang Theory. It was also a love letter to sci-fi fans in general, and Firefly fans in particular. It was almost impossible to count all the references to sci-fi, fantasy, and good old fashioned geekery it contained.
